What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about this Android app.
"For those technologically inclined, it is the best news app. Love it."
"Best HN reader I've tried yet. Had one time where the app constantly crashed on launch, but was resolved by re-installing"
"I like this app but it has started crashing immediately every time it launches, so I am unable to use it."
"Awesome! It would be cool to see the number of comments of each post next to its date too :D"
"Apparently you can't authenticate with your HN account in this one. Works well if you want to lurk, but not if you want to participate."
"Fails to load"
"This app is lovely for browsing Hacker News. You can't submit or comment, but that's not a problem for me. The app itself is very easy to use, and it's beautiful! I would give it 5 stars if it had a night mode or dark theme."
"I really like the feel of this app, and it's lightweight, however every time I open an article I get "Unable to load article", while the comments load fine. How can I make it work?"
"Super clean, works perfectly, and is only the bare features for reading articles and threaded comments. Don't expect to post or vote, though."
"Better than all the rest."
